Hi Koi,
Thank you kindly for your detailed and informative response. These were the main questions I had around the Fusion 5 software. Thanks for the info on the 30 day free trial. That should give me plenty of time to test out what i want to do. I am able to get all the licences through my work for Windows so that will not be a problem.
As for the photo sites, I am just a tad sceptical as to how long these sites will be around, my concern is that one day i go on and all my photos are gone. Perhaps a tad paranoid but just like to be on the safe side. In saying that, i am sure most of your larger ones will be fine for many years to come.
Thanks again and i will get on with building these VM's
Dave
